When I asked her if she liked it she tried to carry my finger off to her nest with her babies... I think that means she likes it?

yay for a small litter!! i love the picture of her with her nest pile.. "Look what I made!!" she looks so proud

Happy Birthday babies! Good job Mouse

. Four babies is awesome!

Maybe Mouse would like her name better if you put a spin on it and made it unique. I was recently visiting my stepmother and the nickname for her kitty is Maus (Mouse in German).

Hey everyone!

Sorry I haven't put up a thread about Faline's babies just yet. I will make sure that I get that done this weekend. I have been taking pictures and weighing them every day so I do have many pictures to share with everyone. There are 5 girls and 5 boys, all with dark eyes, except for one baby boy who has light coloured eyes. The pigment on their skin is coming through and they are going to be gorgeous!

Here is a full litter pic from today to tide you over

aww precious babies! i shouldn't be looking.. baby fawn boys would be far too tempting

Joanne · Sep 6, 2014

A lovely pile of eepers! :heart:

Update on the boys.

The boys are doing great! They are adorable! I'm posting some pics of them. They don't have names yet. Any suggestions?

Today they spent at least 8 hours outside their cage exploring the 'rat room'. The little one was very excited! He jumped and run everywhere! He is very playful

The big daddy is still a little bit distant and doesn't like to be picked up. He also played in the room and explored. Both seemed very happy

Tonight they are very tired and are sound asleep in their cage. They really are great rats. I hope they'll find a good home.
